Note: I wrote this using a source that said James Baldwin was born on August 6, but I have found that most sources say August 2.
James Baldwin was born 100 years ago today, on 06-August-1924. I remember seeing interviews with him when I was very young. I didn't always understand what he was saying, but he always seemed fascinating. I noticed he always had a cigarette in his, just like my dad.
I haven't read his novels, but I have read many of his essays. He told me a lot about America.
